AI Engineer World's Fair 2026

AI Engineer World's Fair 2026 is the flagship conference of the AI Engineer community, held 29 June to 2 July 2026 at Moscone West in San Francisco.

The programme is split into practitioner tracks covering agents, evaluations, retrieval augmented generation, inference cost and latency, security and AI product engineering, with workshops run by the teams building the tools.

It is explicitly for people shipping AI software rather than publishing papers, and it has become the main annual gathering for that audience.
